Waste and Recycling Kit for Doosan wheel loaders

Doosan has launched a new Waste and Recycling Kit for the company’s DL-7 range of wheel loaders. It is the first kit of its type for Doosan wheel loaders and is designed to help operators work safely in the hazardous conditions that often accompany waste handling and recycling applications, including contending with airborne dust, dirt and other dangerous particulates and materials.

The kit is available for all Doosan wheel loader models from the DL200-7 through to the DL480-7, which is the segment of the Doosan range that is most widely used in this kind of environment. The main features of the Waste and Recycling Kit include windshield guards, rim covers, road light protection (front and rear), an arm cylinder cover and articulation guard. There is also a front frame cover, belly protection (front, centre and rear), an air intake mesh, wider fin air conditioner condenser and solid tyres

Several of these features will be available as options, so customers can choose a kit of their choice to tailor their wheel loaders for their specific applications. Doosan is also preparing an aftermarket version of the kit for those customers who decide to install the kit at a later date.

Improving performance and versatility, all of the new DL-7 wheel loaders are equipped as standard with a 3rd spool valve with settable flow and detent function, providing a constant flow for hydraulically driven attachments. The new kit reportedly received much interest from visitors to the Doosan stand at bauma, where it was shown for the first time, installed and displayed on a new generation DL280-7 wheel loader.
